GAINESVILLE has contributed some men OF oxccl-
lent business qualifications to the world Iheru
was an attempt Mt business system early IN inc
history OF the county. In 1872 the MusMnBum
bank was formed with this board OF directors
L. Buckingham, John Mathews, j. Van Horne
w. Sellimnn, II. Fulton, j. Price, j, f. Munroe'
], McIntirc A. II. Woods, j. Hazlctt, NJ. Dii-
Ion, Arious fiye. A. NJ. Mclaughlin was pres
ident, and Il. Granger, cashier.
The next bank of Importance was the Frank,
lin Bank, organized in 1893. 1t was succeeded
by the Franklin Banking Company in lsos, The
leading spirits in the company were Daniel
Brush and Hon. c. w. Potwin, who is still Nv
ing.
Daniel Brush was one OF those sturdy, CON
seryntive clear.mindcd men Of affairs who give
substantial tone to the business community
and whose presence In the carly days OF com
munity assures its future and its commercial
safety.
He commanded the respect and the cordial
confidence OF his contemporaries, and was
pressed by them TO accept many offices oil trust
and responsibility. In 1872 he was made coun'
| ty collector From 1875 TO 1877 he was charged
with the duty of appraising land, which was
then n matter of Importance. He was elected
sheriff of MuslSingum County in 1890, and from
juno, 1891 10 June, 1895, was its treasurer. lie
held other offices, and in addition to his banking
enterprises was nm incorporation OF the Central
Ohio railroad, and so extended helping hand

SO tho translator runs on In an easy way
without q single halt or staggcr Ho Knew
Just what he was about, and II will be seen thht
his rendering was agood and truo one, After
he has told what the characters arc he comes
uobly to the task OF interpreting them. Thc
account says; "The inscription on the tablet
found In BrushGrcck Township is composed OF
three forms OF idonton, which nrc mndc out TO
be dcmotic, hcroglyphic md Greek. ina
these mounds are rude limitations OF the Pyra
mids for the Same purpose is certainly prop
nblc. The discovery OF the Alpha and Omega
hnrmonized with tho evidence in favor OF u
theasiic design on the part of the builder OF inc
great Pyramid,
"Thc astronomical formulation, interpreting
the characters not found within the parallel
lines, is found in the first verso OF the NlN
Psalm, and is associated with the anglo stone
marks, which. 1. they have any signihcation,
may be interpreted; Distinguished pcrsons' ser
wants of the Deity, worthy OF the great respect
shown IN the cntombment"
Then comes tho translation: ~ am the Alpha
and the Omega, saith the Lord God, which was
and which Is to come, the Almighty; giving
first power on earth; secondly, the spirit
added from Heaven without ending
"'Thc heavens declare the glory OF God, MS u
seal Of His power TO bless, first, with life, ana
forever, these servants"
Historian Evcrhnrt takes great many pages
of his book and great many long words and
scientific terms TO lead the gentle reader up TO
the Hno italics of his translation. His whole ac'
count is marked with so much case ana so
much postivcncss OF assertion and statement
and Is, withal so absurd in places, that it
-.ems TO bear the impress OF fraud upon itS
face.
Tho great effort OF his alleged history is the
translation OF the stone tublct. II is the feature
OF the book and the chapter has the place oil
honor No effort Is spared to Impress the reader
with sense of Everhnrt's profound lore HIS
conccit protrudcs with the frequency OF punctu'
alton marks, and his cwh face is crGr1vcd upon
the same plate in the book with tl,o .'cturc OF
the stone and its inscription.
II Evcrhurt had made n translation OF the IN
scription found upon tablet that had been cut
there by another and an older race than ours,
he would deserve both honor and credit.
Unfortunately for himsclfhc merits neither.
The inscription on the tablet and its transla'
tion arc fraudulent.
The characters were not on the stone when
IL was found, but were cut into IL by man
whom Everhart paid fifteen dollars for his
work in making the hicroglyphcs for him to de-
cipher
The person who cut the characters into the
tablet states under oath that he did so, and that
he was employed by the great historian who
furnished him with the design which he trans
ferred to the stone.-FrdRk D. L0omts, in Gin
